==History==
July-2024 - Another fire occurred ([https://forum.protospace.ca/t/fire-while-using-the-trotec/7130 forum post]). This time due to combustible build up in a (seemingly) hard to reach area
June 2023 - material caught fire in the Trotec ([https://forum.protospace.ca/t/trotec-out-of-order/4126 forum post]). Trotec completed all necessary repairs (energy chain and air assist, x axis belt, dust protection belt, top cover/lid, x axis limit switch, laser pointer). The work bed was also replaced at this time (unrelated to the fire). Trotec tech tested laser output (91.1W).
